It's been a rough 8 weeks. After several appointments, and ultrasounds we were told the baby was growing and had a healthy heartbeat. This was at 6w2d that we last heard. This morning, 8w4d, we had a ultrasound and found out the baby was still measuring 6w2d and there was no longer a heartbeat. She was certain we had a missed miscarriage. Now I'll be taking medicine tonight to help finish the miscarriage. We were planning on announcing our pregnancy to everyone on Christmas, and this is the hardest thing I've ever been through. I'm lucky to have a great support system but I just can't help be cry and feel empty. All you want to do as a hopeful mother is protect your little peanut. I just keep trying to remind myself God has a plan.
